Product Information

A film adaptation of Hellblazer, drawing loosely on stories by Garth Ennis, Jamie Delano and Warren Ellis, and starring Keanu Reeves as John Constantine, was released in 2005. This version of Constantine is an American exorcist and former Catholic who can see into the world beyond and fights evil with a magical shotgun. For more information see Constantine (film) and John Constantine (film character).

So there you have it! We hope that this list will help you find the perfect Constantine tattoo for you. Now story wise the film had some issues but they weren't as serious as many people claim they are. As I stated previously the film does drag a little and it does take a long time for the film to actually reveal its point but its the little things that are really interesting. The exorcism scene is very well done and the effects are generally very well made. Effects doesn't make a film, however, and in spite of the issues the film actually succeeds in telling the story it wants to and the ending is indeed a climax. Although a compassionate humanist who struggles to overcome the influence of both Heaven and Hell over humanity and despite his occasional forays into heroism, Constantine is a foul-mouthed cynic who pursues a life of sorcery and danger. His motivation has been attributed to an adrenaline addiction that only the strange and mysterious can sate. He also seems to be something of a "weirdness magnet".Writers who had their run on the Hellblazer series have also admitted meeting the character in real life. Original Hellblazer writer, Jamie Delano also claims to have encountered Constantine, during his run on the character, outside the British Museum. Peter Milligan saw Constantine at a party around 2009 and rushed after him, only to find he'd disappeared. Brian Azzarello once saw him in a Chicago bar but avoided him, saying that "the thing is about John is, the last thing you'd want to be is his friend." He is also one of the strongest characters in the DC universe with abilities like immunity from angelic magic, powerful healing and supreme close-quarter combat skills.

This item contains electronic components. While every effort is made to describe them accurately, no guarantee or warranty is made as to the functionality, lifespan or safety of those components. It is entirely incumbent on the new owner to satisfy themselves as to their safe use and maintenance.But Constantine’s sacrifice is sincere, Christlike, an act of true selflessness to save Isabel’s soul, not his own. He doesn’t want to care, but he does. Underneath the veneer of cynicism, Constantine loves humankind more than the guys in charge.

Detective skills: In the graphic novel Dark Entries, John considers himself a detective, albeit more focused on the supernatural cases. He has great deduction powers, often using magic to get to the bottom of mysteries. An example of this happened during the Crisis on Infinite Earth, where he was one of the only few who saw it coming. This tattoo probably needs no explanation of its value. It’s brilliant because it is simple. A colourful design that shows John Constantine in all his alchemical glory. A lit cigarette in the mouth, collars up, ready to take on occult forces without so much as a flinch. John Constantine first appeared in 1985 as a recurring character in the horror series Swamp Thing, in which he acted as a "supernatural advisor" to the main character. Fans and tattoo enthusiasts have come up with their own interpretations of Constantine tattoo meaning. For some, Constantine tattoos may be an ode to their fandom. For others, it may be steeped in symbolism. One way or another, the sheer badass look of these tattoos make them a must-have. The complex plot by Archangel Gabriel (also seen in CW's Supernatural) can be confusing, but it ultimately boils down to his belief that humanity only ever finds its " nobler self" by way of horror and pain. By unleashing Hell on Earth, Gabriel believes that those who survive the ensuing horrific existence will have truly proven themselves worthy of God's love and, ultimately, a place in Heaven. Gabriel's intentions are ultimately the driving force of Constantine's plot, from the use of Balthazar the demon to find a host for Mammon to be reborn (via Isabel/Angela) to the discovery and delivery of the Spear of Destiny. Gabriel is really at the heart of it all.For information on Constantine's life in the main Hellblazer series, see John Constantine biography. Constantine languished in development hell at Warner Bros in the late ’90s. But the project had staying power, and after years of struggling and evolving, Keanu Reeves signed on to star in the film for music video director Francis Lawrence, who would make his feature debut. With Constantine, Lawrence and his collaborators constructed a rich, textured world, one whose inner workings are intimately familiar to our protagonist, though he doesn’t always feel like explaining them. (“Cats are good. Half in half out, anyway.”) Here, the supernatural is quotidian — performing an exorcism is “like changing your oil,” Reeves told the Associated Press at the time of release. Lucifer Morningstar aka Satan aka the Devil needs no introduction. He is a recurring character in the DC Universe and is Constantine’s accomplice and nemesis throughout the storyline. Astral Projection — Constantine once separated his soul from his body to travel through psyches and dimensions. ( Hellblazer: Joyride)

Constantine's creator, Alan Moore, believes that he has met John Constantine in real life. In 1993, he told Wizard Magazine: If you are a fan of the character and want a tattoo to symbolise your fandom, then this simple yet visually striking depiction of Constantine is just the tattoo you need. This tattoo is a creative take on the relationship shared by John Constantine with the half-breeds that appear in the comics. For any fan, this is a crazy tribute idea that is also remarkable in looks. Illusion — Making people think he's someone or something else ( Hellblazer: Pandemonium), or changing another person's image ( Hellblazer issue 149).

Divination — Used a pendulum and map to find the location of a magical disturbance. ( Hellblazer issues four and 182) The bottom of the lighter features an on/off switch that powers internal electronics which assisted the flame. These electronics remain untested. The lighter shows light signs of use, including portions of the finish that are wearing away, but remains in very fine overall condition. Dimensions: 8 cm x 5 cm x 0.5 cm (3” x 2” x ½”)
